A busy May Update

It's been a busy run. Once we got back from Dundee we discovered a new lump on Missy's leg which she has decided to give a really good chew.

Our day playing in the tulips was cut short for the emergency vet appointment (no point sitting waiting all day, was good to get all our minds off it).

And if course lumps mean surgery. We decided to remove a few others whilst she was under as a precaution so we have been pretty much out of commission for the last few weeks.

Good news yesterday in that everything was benign, so we can all breathe a bit easier. To make things even better, the stitches came out today and, whilst she still needs the cone as the leg is still healing a little, we decided to celebrate by playing in the flowers at the House of the Binns. Hubby had a photoshoot as he has a magic gig coming up, so more on that soon!

And that's us! May is the start of busy season, and we have some nice adventures planned for the end of the month which I'll be sure to share with you all!

Until then!

A Magical May

Let's not talk about April, eh?

Well, it's happened. Our first real health scare (tumour was benign and removed with a good margin). Still, her recovery wasnt great and it took a solid 4 days before she was really back to herself again. 

Then we found another lump literally 2 weeks later, but the needle biopsy was clear in the end.

She's worth every grey hair, but here's hoping we're done for now.

So on to May. Beltane came along, seared off the bad mojo and now we're back having adventures. Specifically, our first camping weekend of the year:

A festival of pagans and witches!

It was slightly colder overnight than expected, but lessons well learned. I had a jumper and spare socks, so survived the rest of the time well. The festival itself was grand, we attended the viking feast (hubby was chosen to be Thor in the storytelling, and he then had to pretend to be Thor pretending to be Freya to try and get his hammer back from a giant (read 7 year old child)). Absolutely fantastic.

There were workshops about folk tales and goddesses, we did mask making and listened about the history of trolls. We also saw my sister in her first combat battle as a viking. She did so well, even if she came back bruised and a bit sore. 

And then we travelled home and have spent the rest of the time recharging. Missy is almost back to herself fully, the sun has helped cheer her up, as did a couple of puppy play dates this week.

Perhaps I haven't recharged as much as I intended!

I'm gonna leave things here with a snapshot of my festival outfit, and Im hoping to get back into my blogging again this month.

Blessed be!
